Re: F8 Day!!!
Hi,
Bill and Ted are both fine
happily swimming around and trying to eat everything in sight
After a lot of searching through posts here i am sure the little circles are bite marks poor thing.
Just one question, they both have chewed tails, will they grow back? It isn't bad just looks a bit frayed
Apart from that they are FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!

Re: F8 Day!!!
Congrats Pandora!
Their tails will grow back. Just some TLC will do the job, maybe some Melafix if I am not mistaken, will help in case they have those bites...correct me if I am wrong.
Cant wait to see Bill n Ted!

Re: F8 Day!!!
melafix won't arm your bacteria. it's a very good remedy, just follow the instructions properly, because even though it's herbal, you can still overdose it.

Re: F8 Day!!!
What do you mean overfeeding (hehehehe I had to get the prawn out lol)
Ok on the ich....
I will have to treat in the tank they are in, as the SG is at 1.004, should I just turn the temp up to 86? I read that in the Hospital forum is that right?
